Guidance: Denaturing controlled drugs that have become waste: RPS 4

Imported from official source

This regulatory position statement (RPS) does not change your legal requirement to:

  • have an environmental permit where one is required
  • register an activity as exempt where you are required to do so
  • However, the Environment Agency will not normally take enforcement action if you do not comply with these legal requirements if you meet the requirements in this RPS.
